That video is incredible man.

I'm not sure if you've mentioned this but how have you constructed your ledges and overhangs?

Looking forward to seeing more!

Thanks everyone for the condolences. I did the overhangs with a pvc substructure and a combination of zipties and underwater epoxy. It ended up being a PITA but the end result was well worth it methinks.

Dont you just loooooove the ups and downs of keeping a reef tank. As some of you may know, I have been trying to convince my rose bta to come out from behind my rock work. She has been in the back of my tank for three weeks now. Last night I noticed that she has made her way to a place where I can almost actually see her when I look at the tank. Im thinking "yes". So I wake up this morning to find pieces of Rosie all over my tank. @#$*!!!! She must have found another powerhead some time over night. Im not sure she will recover from this incident as there is alot of damage. Nems is evil.

Sorry to hear. Man alive it can be frustrating with them sometimes. Sometimes you get lucky and they just sit in the same spot for years. Sometimes they can't sit still and eventually commit hari-kiri.

Well Rosie didnt survive her second encounter with a koralia. The damage was too severe. So to console myself I brought home four clams( I know.....I have a problem) . Heres two croceas. I brought home two squamosas as well but the glass is dirty so will have to get those one later.

those are some nice look clams. They look way different under your lights then at the store. I really like the second clam, to bad my fish would probably tear clams apart in my display.
